Wellington, FL (January 26, 2015)— When Caroline Roffman received an email from Margaret McIntosh inquiring about borrowing a horse for the USEF High Performance Southeast Para Equestrian Dressage Symposium, Roffman immediately wanted to help. Accomplished para-equestrian McIntosh asked for just two things: A horse with a good mind and a great walk.

Roffman, an international Grand Prix rider and head trainer at Lionshare Dressage in Wellington, Florida, knew just the horse. She called her working student Sierra Keasler to suggest that McIntosh borrow Keasler’s Delorean MF, the six-year-old son of Don Principe known around the barn as “Baby Horse.”

Roffman explained that McIntosh is a talented rider who enjoyed a successful eventing career with the help of Bruce Davidson, which led to her competing in the CCI*** and CCI**** at the Rolex Kentucky Three Day Event in 1997 and 1998 before a life-changing accident. While riding in an event in 1999, McIntosh fell over a cross country fence and broke her neck. Her equestrian career would never be the same.

Although she was initially paralyzed from the chest down, McIntosh was able to regain her mobility and get back in the saddle as a para-equestrian. McIntosh now trains with Missy and Jessica Ransehousen. She has risen back through the equestrian ranks, earning the title of 2014 USEF Para-Equestrian Dressage Reserve Champion. Unable to bring her own Rio Rio to Wellington for the Symposium, McIntosh looked to Roffman for the perfect ride.

For Keasler, the decision to lend her horse to McIntosh was an easy one. “After hearing her story, there was no way I could say no,” explained Keasler. “At the symposium, Baby Horse made me proud. He took his job very seriously and worked so hard for Margaret. This was not just an amazing experience for Baby Horse, but also for me. I’ll never forget it, and I am so glad I was able to take part.”

McIntosh was grateful for Team Lionshare’s help. “Caroline was enthusiastic about the whole thing, and her working student Sierra Keasler jumped in with both feet right away,” said McIntosh. “I am so thankful to Sierra, Andrea and Sean Keasler, and Caroline Roffman of Lionshare Dressage for making this horse available for me to ride in the symposium. He’s a fantastic ride and has a super walk.”

Aboard Keasler’s Delorean MF, McIntosh was able to receive feedback from international Para-Equestrian dressage judge and trainer Kjell Myhre that she looks forward to utilizing with her own horse, Rio Rio. “I enjoyed the symposium and thought Kjell was so nice and positive,” McIntosh said. “I really wanted to work on the halt. My trainer Missy (Ransehousen) says to not over-analyze it. I tend to over think the halt not only on this horse, but also on Rio Rio. We really nailed the halt with Kjell when he said just sit down in the saddle. I also practiced my five-meter serpentines, including the preparation for them. I really enjoyed this symposium.”

McIntosh competes in para-equestrian dressage at Grade 1(a), a classification in which riders walk their dressage tests. Although she just barely missed the mark for the 2012 London Olympics Selection Trials and she was unable to compete in the 2014 Alltech World Equestrian Games due to a classification discrepancy, McIntosh continues to push forward in her competitive career. Her sights are set on qualifying for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

Thanks to supporters such as Roffman and Keasler, her dreams of competing on a U.S. Olympic Team are in reach.

Ottawa, ON, Jan. 21, 2015 — Dressage Canada is pleased to announce the athletes selected as recipients of the Dressage Canada Bursary and Dressage Canada Youth Bursary Awards for 2015.

Supported by the Dressage Canada Levy Fund, the Bursary Program recognizes the difficulty athletes face as they strive to continue their dressage education. The Program was developed to encourage athletes to accomplish their goals in the sport of dressage.

The following athlete was awarded the Dressage Canada Bursary in the amount of $2,500.

Jenifer Parks, of Spruce Grove, Alta., is a 43-year-old full time coach and athlete. Parks started riding 36 years ago and has been involved in the sport of dressage for 28 of those years. Like many young riders in Canada, Parks started out in Pony Club, but quickly gravitated to the sport of dressage because of its technical nature, improvement of the horse and requirement for lifelong learning. Having trained two horses to the Grand Prix level, Parks is currently enjoying success with her younger mount. In 2014, the duo competed at third level at several gold competitions earning consistent scores between 68 and 74% while training fourth level and Prix St. Georges. Parks’ future goals include qualifying to represent Canada at the 2018 World Equestrian Games in Bromont, Que.

The following youth athletes were awarded the Dressage Canada Youth Bursary Awards in the amount of $2,500 each.

Alyssa Gaudet, 15, of Memramcook, N.B., started riding at the age of five at a local stable. At the age of 10, she attended her first gold show, won the walk/trot class and has been hooked on dressage ever since. In 2013, Gaudet began showing in at the FEI Junior level with her new horse Palladio, a Dutch Warmblood gelding, and the pair represented Canada at the 2014 North American Junior Young Riders Championships (NAJYRC) in Lexington, KY. Gaudet’s future goals are to once again represent Canada at NAJYRC at the Young Rider level and pursue academic aspirations in education or animal sciences.

Courtney Palleson, 15, of Surrey, B.C., rode solo at the age of three and was in riding lessons at the age of five. Currently, Palleson is moving up the ranks on a PMU mare, Beauty, she rescued as a foal. The pair is training very hard in preparation for the 2015 season, schooling at second level. In 2014, Palleson was invited to represent Team British Columbia at the Canadian Interprovincial Equestrian Championships at Blainville, Que. Preparing to tackle all the requirements to earn her Instructor of Beginners certificate, Palleson also plans to have a career with animals in veterinary medicine.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The Dressage Canada $7 levy is applicable to each horse entered in an Equine Canada sanctioned Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum Dressage competition. The revenues generated from this levy program are used to support, in part, the Dressage Canada Bursary Programs.

From Dressage Canada

Ottawa, Ont., Jan. 21, 2015 — For the second weekend in a row, Canadians received top scores at the FEI level at CDI 1* Gold Coast Opener Festival, held Jan. 15–18, 2015 at the Global Dressage Stadium at Palm Beach International Equestrian Centre, in Wellington, Fla.

In the Prix St. Georges class, Canadian Olympian Christilot Boylen, originally of Toronto, Ont., finished in fourth place, with 68.237%, riding Donatella 79 (De Niro x Canaster I), a 10-year-old Oldenburg mare owned by Jill Irving and Windhaven Farm. Boylen was also fifth (68.184%) with Soccer City (Sir Donnerhall x Weltmeyer), an eight-year-old gelding also owned by Irving and Windhaven Farm. Diane Creech of Caistor Centre, Ont., finished in seventh place, scoring 67.263%, riding Diana C (Damsey x Brentano II), an eight-year-old Hanoverian mare owned by Douglas Leatherdale.

With Donatella 79, Boylen was also the top Canadian, finishing in third place, in the Intermediate I test (70.237%), while Creech and Diana C were fifth overall with 67.579%.

Irving of Moncton, N.B. earned 69.350% in the Intermediate I Freestyle test riding Dio Mio (De Niro x Charmeur) a 12-year-old Hanoverian gelding owned by Irving and Windhaven Farm.

The international judging panel included Liselotte Fore FEI 5*(USA), Gabriel Armando FEI 4* (ARG), Bill Warren FEI 3* (USA) Cara Whitham FEI 5* (CAN) and Stephan Clarke FEI 5* (GBR).

The diggers are rolling at the traditional Soers showgrounds, 200 days before the start of the FEI European Championships Aachen 2015. Extensive new constructions and renovation measures are underway to further improve the grounds.

In the main stadium, not only the seats in both the Riders’ Stand and the AachenMünchener Stand are being completely renewed, but also part of the cement. In addition, a further stable block comprising of 28 stables is being built, which will bring the total number of permanent stables at the showgrounds up to 430. The sanitary facilities are also being expanded: A further 50 toilets are being built at the back of the AachenMünchener Stand, as well as a toilet for disabled people. Furthermore, extensive paving work began this week. Among other things, the area in front of the CHIO Aachen offices is going to be paved. To ensure that the grounds are more suitable for wheelchair users, strips of many of the paths will be paved to make it easier for the wheelchairs to be manoeuvred.
“We want to make our guests’ visit to our fantastic grounds as pleasant as possible,” commented Frank Kemperman, Chairman of the Aachen-Laurensberger Rennverein e.V. (ALRV), organisers of the event, which is why the grounds are permanently expanded and renovated. “We will also be able to make use of all building measures in the future for the annual CHIO Aachen,” added Kemperman.
Approx. 450,000 visitors are awaited at the FEI European Championships Aachen 2015 in five equestrian sport disciplines from August 11th-23rd. The extensive construction measures will be completed prior to the World Equestrian Festival (May 29th-31st). They are being carried out with the support of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia.

Wellington, FL – January 23, 2015 – On behalf of all para-dressage athletes, their families, and supporters, the United States Para-Equestrian Association (USPEA) would like to thank everyone involved who made the 2015 Adequan Global Dressage Festival CPEDI3* a success. In particular, the USPEA acknowledges Lloyd Landkamer, Manager of the Adequan Global Dressage Festival, Thomas Baur, International Coordinator of the Wellington, FL, horse show, and Susan Guinan and the Vinceremos Therapeutic Riding Center for their donation of the mounting ramp.

This international show was important for riders aiming for the Paralympics. It was also a great opportunity to showcase elite para-dressage horses, skillful athletes, and new horse rider combinations in front of FEI International dressage judges. Being a part of the Dressage community at the world’s best Dressage facilities is also imperative. The Para-Dressage sport shares many top sponsors, trainers, judges, spectators, and experts in the Dressage community. This is not only convenient and economical but it also creates the best atmosphere for this international equestrian discipline to grow. In 2016, the U.S. is looking for medals in Eventing, Show Jumping, Dressage and Para-Dressage. This Wellington horse show is a great place to prepare future Paralympic Medal teams and individuals.

Para-Equestrian Dressage athlete Rebecca Hart acknowledged, “I want to give a huge thank you for the Adequan Global Dressage Festival being put on. Having a CPEDI in the states is so important to our sport. I am so thankful to all of the volunteers and everybody that supports this show.”

Wellington, FL – January 24, 2015 – Jose Daniel Martin Dockx (ESP) performed a lovely test with Grandioso, a 1999 P.R.E. stallion, in the Week 3 FEI Grand Prix Special presented by the US P.R.E. Association. The duo scored a 72.864% to take home the win in the class that was held beneath the lights at the International Ring at the Adequan® Global Dressage Festival (AGDF). Tinne Vilhelmson-Silfven (SWE) and Divertimento placed second on a score of 70.647% with Christoph Koschel (GER) and Tiesto coming in third scoring a 69.471%. Tomorrow will conclude Week 3 of AGDF, highlighting the FEI Intermediaire 1 Freestyle class, presented by Chespeake Dressage Institute, and FEI Individual and Team Young Rider classes.

Jose Daniel Martin Dockx and Grandioso

Dockx was very pleased with the way Grandioso handled the atmosphere under the lights, an unusual circumstance for the class. The large number of entries in the Intermediaire 1 class forced the FEI Grand Prix Special to run later in the day than usual. “I have a horse with great character, and he didn’t seem to care,” commented Dockx on riding underneath the lights. “It was actually better because the day of the Grand Prix he was very warm which made me a little scared it could be too much for him. Tonight it was a little cooler, and he doesn’t seem to care if it is day or night.”

As for their test, Dockx was happy with the mostly mistake-free week the pair has had and saw improvement in their tempi changes in the Grand Prix Special. “I was very happy with the one-tempis because in the last two or three shows I always miss one or two changes and this weekend we didn’t miss one. It is difficult for him to do the tempis on the centerline, and he did very well with it today,” he continued.

Vilhelmson-Silvfen and Divertimento had a lovely test, placing them second in the large class. The pair, who has had a very successful beginning to their 2015 season, continues to improve with each outing. “I am quite happy with him after tonight. I was a bit worried about riding him in the dark under the lights, but he took it very well,” she smiled. “He was very nice to ride today and we had a fault free test, so I am always very happy with that.”

“I was very pleased with his pirouettes today and also that there were no mistakes in the tempis. He can get a bit nervous and they can be difficult and I’m happy we did them without any bobbles. We had a mistake in the Grand Prix so I was glad that we were able to go mistake-free there today,” said Vilhelmson-Silvfen when describing her ride on the big Westphalian gelding.

Christoph Koschel and Tiesto

Sabine Schut-Kery (USA) also had a great day, topping another large class in Week 3 at AGDF, taking home the win aboard Sanceo, a 2006 Hanoverian stallion, in the FEI Intermediaire 1, presented by Chesapeake Dressage Institute, scoring a 71.184%. Tina Konyot (USA) placed second on a 70.895% with Wyoming, followed by Kimberly Herslow and Rosmarin in third scoring a 70.763%. The top five riders in the class were all U.S. riders.

Schut-Kery who has had a phenomenal beginning to her 2015 season with Sanceo, continued their success with another big win at the CDI W level. “He felt very energetic and was very with me. I was able to make adjustments, which is always so important. We did have a bobble, which was my mistake,” she admitted. “I just lost him in all of that power!”

Schut-Kery and Sanceo in their winning presentation.

The duo, which also took home a win yesterday in the large FEI Prix St. Georges class, continued to impress the judges today. Schut-Kery is regularly based in California so the trip to Wellington each year is an investment she truly believes in making. “This is my second year at (AGDF) with this horse, but I have come in the past. The facility here and the entire show are just incredible, specifically the footing, but everything is just first-class,” she said. “To have this kind of consistent footing makes you as a rider feel so comfortable going into the ring. I know I can trust the footing out here, and it allows me to be playful and push for more.”

Jill Irving, Alice Womble-Heitman, Dr. Mike Heitman, and Sabine Schut-Kery

Sanceo’s owners, Alice Womble-Heitman and Dr. Mike Heitman, made the trip from Texas to watch the stallion compete at AGDF this week and Schut-Kery couldn’t more proud of how they performed. “I am so grateful for my owners. I wouldn’t be having this interview without their incredible support. We have a great relationship, we make decisions together, and I am just so proud that she chose me to ride this horse,” she commented. “It was just a phenomenal weekend, they won the Jill Irving Owner Award, which was presented last night. Everyone always wants to know what is going on with the horse and rider, but really the owners are the ones who make this possible.”

Several awards were given throughout last night’s “Friday Night Stars” festivities. These awards highlighted the commitment of owners and recognized high scoring performances throughout the week at Adequan® Global Dressage Festival. The Best Owner Award for Overall Highest Score in the National Show was presented by Jill Irving and awarded to Farah Rizvi (USA) for her outstanding performance at the National competition in the USEF First Level Pony JR/YR classes aboard Prince Z.

Jill Irving also presented the FEI Prix St. Georges Owner Award to the winner of the class, which was awarded to Alice Womble-Heitman and Dr. Mike Heitman, as their 2006 Hanoverian stallion, Sanceo. Marcia Pepper, owner of Mariett, took home the Best Owner Award presented by Wellington Equestrian Realty for the second time after her horse Mariett took another FEI Grand Prix Freestyle victory. Lars Petersen and Mariett also were awarded that Adequan® High Score Award for the FEI Grand Prix Freestyle.

Owner Marcia Pepper joined her horse Mariett, rider Lars Petersen, ringmaster Gustavo Murcia, and Craig Martin and Matt Varney of Wellington Equestrian Realty.

AGDF 3 will conclude tomorrow afternoon with the FEI Intermediaire 1 Freestyle accompanied by several Individual and Team Young Rider classes. For more information on the Adequan® Global Dressage Festival, please visit www.globaldressagefestival.com.
